My Comfort Zone

I know I’ve been writing a lot about the rotating brownouts that we’ve been having, basically whining and complaining about it, but I’m sure I’m not the only one who’s aggravated about this situation. All of us here are fed up with it and we feel so helpless because there’s nada we can do about it.

It’s more annoying when it happens in the evening because it interrupts the cooking of dinner. And who can sleep in this blazing heat (other than Lucifer himself) without a fan or air conditioning? I’m actually starting to have dark circles around my eyes, though it’s not that visible yet. But soon, if this continues, I know I’ll eventually need some eye cream for dark circles because the brownouts will be an ongoing scenario until June. And again, I know I will not be the only one who’s complaining about this, or who will be needing an eye fixer upper.

I was reading about Blue Cross Blue Shield NC insurance policies when…POOF! The power went out again! This is really becoming totally aggravating. And that was as early as 7 o’clock in the morning. It used to go out at around midday or late in the afternoon.

As per the news, we’ll be continuing to experience these rotating brownouts until early June. Imagine that! I do wonder if the authorities are going to try and do something about this. They can’t even give us a proper schedule to know when the brownouts will occur. They need to at least give us a heads up as to when and how long the power outages will be so we could at least prepare. But there’s been nada.

Oh well! I think we will just have to live with this, huh? Poor us! (“,)

It’s what the headline says a couple of days ago, I think. Gosh! Having this rotational brownout every single day is so annoying already not to mention, time consuming and all. It has been totally affecting our daily lives. And now, this!?

It’s been so hot here in our country now. March being the hottest month, the temperature ranges from 33 to 35 degrees celsius. That is just so hot! And that was the reason behind the power shortage and soon, water shortage. How unlucky we can become.

We do hope they can do something about it though. Fingers crossed!

It’s a non-working holiday here today! I posted previously about the long weekend that we had because of Monday being a holiday. And with today being a holiday once again, we will be having another long weekend. Yepper!

The little once has no classes too so I wasn’t in a cramming mode today. What a relief!

Holidays really makes me happy and gay! LOL.

It’s a holiday here in our country today which makes it a three-day weekend for us. What a relief because Mondays couldn’t be a fun day at times because of tasks and chores that need to be accomplished. Yes, Tuesday and other days can be like that too but at least, one busy day was subtracted leaving only four busy days left. Hehe. Makes sense huh?

The reason behind the holiday is because our country is celebrating the anniversary of the first EDSA Revolution that happened in 1986. The exact date should be February 25th but since it falls on a Thursday, our President decided to move it to Monday so we will have a long weekend. Good idea! It’s not the first time that she has done it though.

It’s midday now and so far it has been such a relaxing day for me. Great!

I’ve talked about experiencing power interruptions for months before but we’ve been enjoying no interruptions after that for like three months. And now, here it comes again. We’ve had power outages for half an hour to an hour since yesterday and it’s really annoying with the weather that we have and it has been so hot lately, about 30 degrees Celsius which is really hot. The AC is on almost all day and when there’s power outages, we can’t do anything but use fans instead.

I wonder what’s the problem this time. Before, they said it’s because of power shortage. Hope the authorities will be able to fix the problem soon enough because it can really be uncomfortable having no power and definitely annoying.
